Eloquence is not a natural talent, it is acquired through hard training. All eloquent and eloquent speakers and orators in history, both ancient and modern, both at home and abroad. They all achieved success through hard training.

These celebrities and great people have set a glorious example for us to train eloquence. If we want to develop excellent eloquence, we must be like them, meticulous and train hard, as Mr. Hua Luogeng said in summarizing the training " "Eloquence" said: "Diligence can make up for weakness, and every effort is rewarded with talent."

Here we introduce several simple, easy and effective eloquence training methods that suit everyone's characteristics.

(1) Speed ??reading method

The "reading" here refers to reading aloud, which is to read with your mouth instead of looking with your eyes. As the name suggests, "speed reading" also means reading aloud. Just read aloud quickly.

The purpose of this training method is to train people to be articulate, have accurate pronunciation and clear enunciation.

Method: Find a speech or a piece of beautifully written prose. First, get a dictionary and look up the words and phrases in the article that you don't know or understand, clarify them, and then start reading aloud. Generally speaking, the speed is slow when you start reading aloud, and then speed up gradually, reading faster and faster each time, and finally reach the fastest speed you can achieve.

Requirements: There should be no pauses during the reading process, the pronunciation should be accurate, the enunciation should be clear, and the pronunciation should be as complete as possible. Because if you don't pronounce each word completely, then if you speed up, people will not be able to hear what you are saying, and fast will lose the meaning of fast. Our speed must be based on clear enunciation and clean pronunciation. We have all heard the commentary by Song Shixiong, an expert in sports commentary. His commentary is very "fast". The "kuai" explained by Song Shixiong is fast but not messy. Every word and every sound is pronounced very clearly and accurately, without any ambiguity. The speed we hope to achieve is the same speed as his, with clear enunciation and accurate pronunciation, not speed just for the sake of speed.

The advantage of speed reading is that it is not restricted by time or place, no matter when and where. Just have an article handy to practice. Moreover, it is not restricted by personnel and does not require the cooperation of others. One person can complete it independently. Of course, you can also find a classmate to listen to your speed reading exercises and ask him or her to help you find problems in your speed reading. For example, which word's pronunciation is not accurate enough, which part of the enunciation is not clear, etc. This will be more conducive to your purposeful correction and learning. You can also use a tape recorder to record your speed reading, and then listen to it yourself to find out the shortcomings and make improvements. It would be better if there is a teacher to guide you.

(2) Recitation method

The students have all recited the text. There are poems, essays, and novels. The purpose of recitation varies. Some are forced to memorize because the teacher requires them to memorize in order to complete the learning tasks assigned by the teacher; others are to memorize certain famous poems and lines to enrich their literary quality. The main purpose of the recitation we advocate is to exercise our eloquence.

The recitation we require does not just require you to memorize a certain speech or prose to complete the task. The recitation we require requires both "memorization" and "recitation." This kind of training has two purposes: one is to cultivate memory ability, and the other is to cultivate oral expression ability.

Memory is an essential quality for practicing eloquence. Without good memory, it is impossible to cultivate export. Only when you have fully accumulated knowledge in your brain can you speak freely and talk endlessly. If your mind is blank, then no matter how sharp your tongue is, it will not help. Memory, like eloquence, is not an innate talent. Acquired training also plays a vital role in it. "Memorization" is the cultivation of this ability.

"Chanting" is a kind of training for expression ability. The "recitation" here is what we often call "reciting". It requires expressive expression based on an accurate grasp of the content of the article.

The recitation method is different from the speed reading method we talked about earlier. The speed reading method focuses on "speed", while the recitation method focuses on "accuracy". That is to say, the speeches or articles you memorize must be accurate, without any omissions or errors, and the articulation and pronunciation must also be accurate.

The method is: the first step is to choose a speech, prose, or poem that you like; the second step is to analyze and understand the selected material and understand the author's thoughts and feelings. This requires some effort. We need to analyze sentence by sentence, carefully consider each word and sentence, feel the author's thoughts and feelings from it, and stimulate our own emotions; the third step is to analyze the selected speeches, prose, and poetry. Wait for some artistic processing, such as finding out the stress, dividing pauses, etc., which will help to accurately express the content; the fourth step is to recite based on the above steps. During the recitation process, you can also proceed step by step. First, carry out "back" training. That is to memorize the article first. There is no requirement to be emotional at this stage. As long as you can achieve skilled memory. And in the process of memorizing it, I can further understand the style and rhythm of the work, and lay a more solid foundation for accurately grasping the work. The second is to read aloud based on memorized articles. Recite speeches, essays, poems, etc. that you have memorized aloud, and always pay attention to whether the pronunciation is correct and have a certain amount of emotion. The third step is the last step of this training, which is to recite with full emotion, accurate language and intonation.

The requirement here is to memorize the article accurately and accurately express the thoughts and feelings of the work. For example, if we want to recite Gorky's "Petrel", we should first understand that this is a prose poem. It predicts the coming storm of revolution, and sings the praises of Haiyan, the image of the proletarian warrior. The entire prose poem is passionate and passionate, expressing the revolutionaries' unstoppable love and hatred. Then we must grasp this tone when reciting "Haiyan". Of course it's not enough to just capture the tone of the work. We also need to perform some technical processing on the work, such as dividing paragraphs, determining stress, pauses, etc. Recitation that is smooth, without waves, without ups and downs, and tuned to the end will not be successful. Some people grasp the passionate and enterprising tone of "Haiyan" when reciting it, but do not pay attention to the recitation skills. They open their mouths at the highest note. As a result, when they reach the highest point of expressing their feelings, they can only shout hoarsely. We say this is also because the grasp is not accurate. If you have an accurate grasp of the author's ideological and emotional development, you will not make similar mistakes.

(3) Voice training method

Voice training means practicing voice and throat. In life, we all like to listen to those full, round, pleasant sounds, rather than dry, weak, hoarse and dry sounds. Therefore, it is necessary for us to develop a good voice and develop a pleasant voice.

The method of practicing voice is: the first step is to practice Qi. As the saying goes, when practicing voice, you must first practice Qi. Breath is the driving force for the human body to produce sounds, just like the engine on a car. It is the basis for sound production. The size of the breath is directly related to the sound production. Lack of breath, weak voice, excessive exertion, and damage to the vocal cords. Therefore, when we practice voice, we must first learn to use Qi.

Inhale: Inhale deeply, contract your lower abdomen, open your entire chest, and try to inhale as much air as possible. We can experience how you inhale when you smell a fragrance. Be careful not to lift your shoulders when inhaling.

Exhale: Exhale slowly. Let the breath come out slowly. Because when we give speeches, recite, or debate, we sometimes need to take longer breaths. This can only be achieved by exhaling slowly and long. When exhaling, you can basically close your teeth. Leave a small gap for the breath to pass through slowly.

Learn the basic methods of inhaling and exhaling. You can go outside or go to the park to do this exercise every day, and take deep breaths. It will be effective over time.

The second step is to practice your voice. We know that the sound source of human language is in the vocal cords, that is, our voices are emitted by airflow vibrating the vocal cords.

Before you practice speaking, you need to do some preparation work. First relax the vocal cords, vibrate them with some gentle airflow, and prepare the vocal cords to make some gentle sounds. Never open your mouth and yell, as that will only damage the vocal cords. This is just like before we do strenuous exercise, we need to do some preparatory movements, otherwise it is easy to strain the muscles.

The vocal cords are active, and we still need to do some preparatory activities in the mouth. We know that the oral cavity is an important sound organ for humans. The loudness and roundness of the sound are directly related to the oral cavity, so do not underestimate the role of the oral cavity.

Oral activities can be carried out in the following ways:

First, practice opening and closing the mouth to activate the chewing muscles, that is, the facial skin. In this way, the chewing muscles will be able to move easily when practicing voice training.

Second, keep the soft palate straight. This method can be experienced by learning the sound of a duck calling "gāgā".

The human body also has an important sound organ, which is the nasal cavity. When some people pronounce, they only exert force on the throat, and there are no two sound organs in the upper chest and nasal cavity at all, so the sound is thin and the timbre is poor. The way to practice nasal croaking is to learn howling like a cow. But we must pay attention to that if we only use our nasal cavity to sound when speaking on weekdays, it may also cause the nasal sound to be too strong.

We should also note that when practicing voice, never go outside to practice right after waking up in the morning, as this will cause damage to the vocal cords. Especially when the temperature difference between outdoor and indoor is large, do not open your mouth and shout. In this case, the cold air entering the mouth will stimulate the vocal cords.

Third, practice articulation. Articulation seems to be further away from vocalization, but in fact the two are closely related. Only when the pronunciation is accurate, clear, and mellow can the enunciation of words be "correct".

We all learned Pinyin when we were in elementary school, and we all know that each word is composed of a syllable, and we can divide a syllable into three parts: the beginning, the abdomen, and the end. These three parts are divided according to the phonetic structure. Generally speaking, it can be said that the beginning of the word is what we call the initial consonant, the belly of the word is what we call the final, and the end of the word is the rhyme.

Be sure to bite the beginning of the word when pronouncing it. There is a saying that says, "A word weighed heavily by a thousand pounds will be weighed down by the listener." This is what it means. Therefore, when we pronounce words, we must bite the beginning of the word tightly. At this time, the lips must be strong, put the power of pronunciation on the beginning of the word, and use the beginning of the word to ring the belly and end of the word.

The pronunciation of the belly of the word must be full and substantial, and the shape of the mouth must be correct. The sound should be upright, not horizontal, and round, not flat. However, if it is not handled well, it will easily make the sound flat, collapsed, and not rounded.

The suffix is ??mainly the return sound. Guiyin must be home and complete. That is to say, don't pronounce the word "banjiezi", but pronounce the sound completely. Of course, the end of the word must be able to be closed, and the sound cannot be extended too long.

If we can follow the above exercise requirements, then your pronunciation will be mellow and loud, and your voice will become pleasant to the ear.

You should do more exercises like this here:

① Take a deep breath. Count and see how many you can count.

②Run about 20 meters, and then read a text aloud, trying to avoid gasping.

③Read and practice passwords

A. The pacesetters from all sides rushed to the north slope, and the artillerymen lined up on the north slope;

The artillerymen were afraid of touching the pacesetters, and the pacesetters were afraid of touching the artillery guns.

B. Brother is carrying a melon basket across a wide ditch, cross the ditch quickly to see the strange dog;

Just look at the strange dog, the melon basket buckles, the melon rolling basket is empty and the strange dog is looked at.

C． Hong Xiaobo and Bai Xiaoguo,

collecting radishes in baskets.

Hong Xiaobo collected a basket of white radishes,

Bai Xiaoguo collected a basket of carrots.

I don’t know whether it was Hong Xiaobo who harvested more white radish, or Bai Xiaoguo who harvested more red radish.

(4) Paraphrase method

To put it simply, the paraphrase method is to repeat what others have said. This method is often used in the classroom. For example, the teacher asks students to watch a slide, and then asks the students to retell the plot of the slide or the dialogue of the characters. The purpose of this training method is to exercise people's memory, reaction and language coherence.

The method is: choose an article of appropriate length and a certain plot. It is best to use a narrative passage in a novel or speech, and then read it and retell it many times. Until I can completely retell this work. When retelling, you can record the content of the first retelling, and then compare it with the original text to see how much you can retell. Repeat it and read it as many times as you can before you can retell the entire content. This kind of practice is not just about reciting, but also about practicing language coherence. It would be even better if you can retell it in front of everyone. It can also exercise your courage and overcome nervousness.

This requires us to retell the basic plot at the beginning. When remembering the original words, we can retell the meaning in our own words; when retelling the second time, it requires not only It is a retelling of the plot, and it is required to be able to retell a certain character language or descriptive language; in the third retelling, the character language and basic descriptive language should be basically and accurately retelled, and the requirements are gradually increased. Before conducting this exercise, it is best to formulate specific requirements based on your actual situation and the circumstances of the selected article. For example, if you choose an article with 10 sentences, then you should be able to retell the basic plot and several key sentences in the first retelling; you should be able to retell 5 to 7 in the second time. sentences; you should be able to repeat 8 to 10 sentences the third time. Of course, the faster the speed progresses, the stronger your language coherence and memory will be.

When you start practicing, it is best to choose materials with short sentences and lively content, so that it is easier for you to grasp, remember, and repeat. As the training progresses, you can gradually select materials with longer sentences and less plot for practice. In this way, from easy to difficult, step by step, the effect will be better.

This kind of practice requires patience and perseverance. Some students choose articles with long sentences and few plots as training materials from the beginning, but the result is often waste in haste. It's just like when we learn to walk, if we don't learn to walk, we must fall before we learn to run. Moreover, this training sometimes seems very cumbersome, troublesome, and even boring. This requires us to have patience and perseverance, to advance despite difficulties, to be brave enough to endure hardship, and not to be afraid of trouble. Without patience and perseverance, you will be destined to achieve nothing.

(5) Imitation method

Each of us has been imitating since childhood, imitating what adults do and what adults say. In fact, the process of imitation is also a learning process. When we were young, we learned to speak from our father, mother and the people around us, and imitated the people around us. Then we can also use imitation to practice eloquence and imitate people who are expert in this field. In this way, over time, our oral expression skills will be improved.

The method is:

①Imitate the expert. You can record the voices of announcers and actors that you like and are suitable for you to imitate, and then imitate them.

③Imitate at any time. We listen to the radio, watch TV, and movies every day, so you can imitate the announcer, presenter, or actor at any time. Pay attention to his voice, tone, expression, and movements, and imitate while listening and imitate while watching. Over time, your speaking skills will improve. And it will increase your vocabulary and enhance your literary knowledge.

The requirements here are to imitate as closely as possible, imitating the tone, speaking speed, expression, movements and other aspects of the imitation object, and to be creative in imitation, and strive to surpass the other person in imitation.

When performing this kind of exercise, you must first pay attention to choosing an object that suits you to imitate. We should choose those language actions that are good for our body and mind to imitate. Some of our students are very good at imitating, but they are not serious enough when imitating. They only choose some swear words to imitate. Over time, a kind of low-level taste is formed. We Oppose this method of imitation.

The imitation method is a simple, easy to learn, highly entertaining and quick-effective method. It is especially suitable for students of our age to practice. I hope everyone can study hard and practice hard to get results soon.

(6) Description method

When we were young, we all learned to talk by looking at pictures. The description method is similar to this kind of talking by looking at pictures, but we have to look at more than just books. The pictures above also include some scenes, events, objects, and people in life, and the requirements are higher than talking through pictures. Simply put, the description method is to express the scenery, things, objects and people you see in descriptive language.

The description method can be said to be a step further than the above training methods. There are no ready-made speeches, essays, poems, etc. as your practice materials here, but you are required to organize the language to describe it yourself. Therefore, the main purpose of descriptive training is to train students' language organization ability and language orderliness.

Whether it is speech, speaking, or debating, you need to have a strong ability to organize language. Without this ability, it is impossible to have a mouth that hangs over the river. The ability to organize language is an integral part of oral expression ability. A basic skill.

The method is to use a painting or a scene as the object of description. The first step is to observe the object to be described.

For example, if the object we want to describe is "a small lake in autumn", then we have to observe what is around the lake. Are there trees? Is there a rockery? Have a pavilion? Are there any tourists? And what do trees look like, what do mountains look like? What does the pavilion look like against the backdrop of the lake, mountains and tree shadows, and what kind of mood should the tourists in autumn feel at this time? All this requires you to observe with your own eyes and experience with your heart. Only with this observation will your description have a basis. The second step is description. When describing, you must grasp the characteristics of the scenery and describe it in order.

The requirement is to capture the characteristics and describe them. The language must be clear and understandable, and there must be a certain degree of literary talent. The description must not be a running account or plain, but must use descriptive language and be as vivid and lively as possible. You need to talk about the order, don't use one sentence in the east, one in the west, one in the south, and one in the north. Describe things so that people can know what scene you are describing. Allow association and imagination when describing. For example, if you observe a gray-haired old grandfather sitting alone by the lake in autumn under the shade of variegated trees, you may have an association. You may think of your own grandfather, or you may think of this old man's life. For the evening scene, you may also think of the poem "The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it is almost dusk"... Then when describing, you can add all of this to make your description more substantial and vivid.

(7) Role-playing method

We also borrow the word role from dramas and movies. A character in a play or movie played by an actor. The characters we have here have the same meaning as the characters in dramas and movies.

The role-playing method requires us to learn to act like actors and play different characters that appear in the work. Of course, this acting is mainly based on language.

The method is:

①Choose a novel or drama with a plot and characters as the material.

② Analyze the selected materials, especially the language characteristics of the characters.

④ One person can play multiple roles to develop his or her language adaptability.

The purpose of this kind of training is to cultivate people's language adaptability, personality, and appropriate expressions and movements.

This training method requires a heavy "acting" component, which is different from the requirement for recitation. It not only requires a loud voice, full of emotion, and appropriate pauses; it also requires the ability to express the character's personality vividly and vividly, and it must be equipped with certain movements and expressions. From this perspective, this training is somewhat difficult. But as long as we work hard in this direction, then we will successfully move forward!
